I found a tailor who made me a shirt with a bleed defense of 16 and added four sockets. I dragged and dropped my skill tape to the shirt and it took it. It added 1 bleeding defense. I have three sockets left. I wish the makers of this game could come out with a more comprehensive guide. I had no idea clothing could have skill enhancements built in and added on later. I have noticed lots of enhancements on the bazaar for sale but they are all for armor so far.

In beta we saw quite a few skill tapes (though at that time they looked a bit like a white pearl). They were really neat and not too hard to get. The better ones wererare but impossible to find and you could often trade one for another to get the skill you wanted. I got a +7 one once and was told it was very good -I heard of some people with +10. The best I'vefound since release though was +1.

Are there any items that will never have sockets?

there is a bug.. 2 of the same skill enhancements can not go into the same piece of armor.. and just sucks it away. The same is with the clothing tapes. (lost some +1 repairs).

Hello all,


I've got one quick question to which an answer would make me very happy!


What are sockets and what are they used for?


I've found them on armours and clothing but have been unable to locate anything that attaches to them or any explanation of what they are in the manuals and game guides. Does anyone know?


cheers

the higher up the tailoring tree, the more sockets the clothes you make get... (max of 4 sockets)


Sockets in clothes are for the skill attachments (looks like a roll of tape)


Sockets in armor are for armor attachments (looks like a armor segment or creature scale)


Bio Engie Mods dont go into sockets.


if you are lucky enuff to find a skill attachment skill tape, just drop it on to an item of clothing to add it to one of the sockets. they are quite rare.


I hope this helps.

Hello All:


I have been making cloths post patch that used to have sockects. Now after the last patch these items no longer have sockects. Am I doing something wrong or did this get moved to a master tailor skill?


Thx.

I noticed that the Grand Ball Gown has yet to give me sockets, and because I only have engineering 1, my artisan clothing has little to no sockets, but that's about it as far as no sockets, everything else is socketing just fine.

Sockets are completely random and broken on a few clothing items. By random I mean, a master tailors chance of getting up to 4 sockets has been reduced probably by 15% so that many clothing items do not have 4 sockets, rather they get 0, 1, 2 or 3. It used to be wayyyyy back in the day that tailors could experiment on thier clothing to get more sockets, but since experimentation has been taken out of the game, except for wookiee armor stuff, sockets are random.
